Oh, Tim Hortons, Why Aren't You in Chicago?

On our trip to Canada last summer we stopped at a couple of Tim Hortons.  There were about a kabillion of them and the Chicago Tribune listed Tim Hortons as a must see stop, so I had to go to one!  (A little side note--there was actually one town where we could stand in one spot and see three Tim Hortons..)

Tim Hortons in a way is Canada's equivalent of Dunkin' Donuts--but a whole lot better.  They have all sorts of baked goods like cookies, muffins, bagels, croissants, and, of course, donuts.  They also have breakfast sandwiches, lunch sandwiches, wraps and soup.  If you need a caffeine pick-me-up, Tim Hortons has a selection of coffee concoctions.  We quickly became fans of Tim Hortons while in Canada.  Their baked goods were so delicious! (They definitely were not like the stale products that I so often receive at Dunkin' Donuts!)  I am a particular fan of their raspberry muffin---yum!

Since it has been almost a year since our trip, I am totally longing for some Tim Hortons.  Fortunately, there are some in Ohio.  We will be passing through Ohio on a future trip, so you know where I will be stopping.

Here's to hoping Tim Hortons comes to Chicago!
